Day two

It is the second of December and after some lovely goodies yesterday I am looking forward to getting more goodies today.


The first advent calendar that I will reveal today is by busy bee candles.



Today is a melt in the scent 'Christmas Cookie'. It is a sweet scent that is rather like the cookie scents from the larger companies and these scents are a mainstay of the christmas lines for many customers and for me this will be a great year round melt scent.



The next advent calendar today is by Youbeauty and this has a small aperture today.




Inside the number two door is this Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Balm in the shade Rose. 
It has a lovely red tint and looking at the ingredients I am quite happy as the four largest ingredients in this lip balm are coconut oil, vegetable oil, beeswax and olive oil. 
On trying it I found that it was very soft on the lips and was very moisturising but looking at the ingredients it's not really surprising. 
this is also not tested on animals and I like the brand so really happy to receive this today.


Next is smiggle and we are opening up the snowmans chest today.


Inside are these wind up teeth. These are really cute and I will probably put these in Bean's stocking as he will really love using these.
My favourite item today for sure.


Next is tinc with a long thin box. I have to admit that I really like that there are boxes this year  as they give me so interest and it is like I am getting a little present every day (maybe next year I'll stick to only ones in this format for my own amusement).


Inside the box is a rather cute snowman pen. It has blue ink and is an item that will be very useful as I am forever losing pens.
Just hope I don't lose this cutie.


The final advent calendar today is from asos and this is a larger aperture than youbeauty.


Inside is this 5g packet of Batiste Stylist XXL Plumping powder. This looks really interesting and if my hair didn't stand on end I would really enjoy it but with hair like mine it is best given to someone else.



So, there are my items for today and it looks to be a great day and I can use all but the batiste powder and I am pretty sure if my hair was different I would probably enjoy that too.
But for me the order of preference would be:
1. Smiggle wind up teeth
2. Youbeauty burts bees lip balm
3. Tinc pen
4. Busy bee candles christmas cookie melt
5. Asos batiste xxl plumping powder.

Thankyou for reading.

Love ME Beauty September (Beauteco) 2013 box menu One

Boxes cost £10 plus p and p of £2.95 monthly from  lovemebeauty.com . Received this box earlier in the month but was my favourite box in September by far. Matriskin collagen serum 7.5ml (sample size) worth approx £24.10 Detailed by Love ME beauty as a serum to both prevent and to cure various signs of aging. It has a purpose of filling and reducing wrinkles from the first application and removes expression lines in just 30 days. I love serums as a little goes a long way and this one is no different.  This one is a clear gel and feels nice when applied and is helping to fight off the wrinkles of this thirty one year old. Although per gram it is very expensive and would be too expensive for me to buy the full size version. Essential care Organic lip silk 4.5g (full size) £5.50 at  www.essential-care.co.uk Detailed as a 'tasty and nourishing blend of beeswax, Shea butter, coconut oil and orange essential oil to moisturise, repair and protect your lips i

Lovelula may 2014

Image
  I've recently signed up for a few boxes as I am looking at cancelling some again and this was one that I signed up for again after getting it a little while ago and deciding to try it again for three boxes and this is my first box of the three I prepaid for. This is my Lovelula May box that arrived this afternoon. So odd to see these leaflets again after a while away but definitely exciting. Eight samples in my box this month and although I have one sample (the lip and cheek stain) from a Birchbox I am really happy to see a few brands that I have never tried before and products I haven't tried as well as some goods that will be great to take on my holidays. So, what did I get? The first two items were from Fresh therapies and are two different types of samples of their natural nail varnish remover products. The first sample is a nourishing nail varnish wipe that is sufficient for 10 nails according to the packaging and the second sample is
